I was hired by an Alaska-based brewing company from my home town of Juneau a few years back. The idea was to combine the accessibility of a funny-pages comic strip with the sex appeal of drinking beer.

The highly experimental, outdoor adventure comic strips below were developed and ultimately abandoned for a more traditional marketing campaign. Click the strips below to read!

So much for that idea…

They were $ fun $ to draw nevertheless.

A little Brill-Toon for the Holidays

Just a little toon so everyone will remember what the holidays are REALLY all about.  PRESENTS!  ^0^

Being several months since the Tacoma Arts Commission formally announced their funding of my first TACOMIC BOOK, a collection of 100 of my editorial cartoon greatest hits, I thought I would check with this progress report:

Any serious fantasy book needs a Tolkien-style map lurking somewhere round the table of contents. Click to enlarge the rough draft sketch of my Tacoma map (above).

Other items my book will include:

1. Table of Contents – COMPLETE
2. FOREWORD by John Hathaway, aka THE NEW TAKHOMAN – COMPLETE
3. Map – IN PROGRESS
4. Intentionally left blank pages – COMPLETE
5. “Fun Facts” – NOT STARTED
6. 100 of the best TACOMICS from 2007 – 2009 – NOT STARTED
